Representatives from Music City’s classical community will come together this afternoon for the official proclamation of “Classical Music Day” in Nashville. The ceremony begins at 1:00 on the steps of the Schermerhorn Symphony Center and will, of course, include a live performance.  We’re kicking off our celebration on the air in the morning, with recordings of Midstate musicians scheduled throughout the day.
